Des Rainey - Doc Raineys - World of Fun & Learning

Are you looking for something to REALLY help your kids with their math(s)? Doc Rainey makes maths fun! No matter if you're a care-giver with lots or limited time, a school or teacher seeking innovative and engaging math tools, Doc Raineys can help.

For parents keen to spend time with their children and help them through all their early math(s) we have two wonderful things.

First there is the FLIK STIK FUN-ABACUS or 'Flikstik' for short - surely the most useful and versatile teaching and learning aid. As they say, 'There's a magic here. You can go from one aspect of math to the next and the next. It's a very very versatile tool.'

Then with the Flikstik come wonderful GAME & ACTIVITY RESOURCES that drive its use and take children through almost every area of early math(s), from counting & 'counting on', to addition and subtraction, to tables, even early algebra and stats!

Is it starting to sound complicated? It's not! It's driven by games and activities that children can play by themselves or with you or with a brother, sister, or friend. On top of that, the intelligent interest and support that YOU can give will count for a lot!

The Flikstik Early-Math(s) Pack is for children usually from about 4 to 6 or 7. It is a comprehensive set and all you need to get your child off to a tremendous start in mathematics. Through easy-to-follow activity and games books it takes children into almost all areas of early math(s). Included are:

• Two Flick Sticks
• The Flick Stick Guide - 24 pages packed with information
• NumberLine Book - covering all the stages of counting and early addition.

The Flikstik 'Tables' Pack is for slightly older children (usually 6-7 through 11-12) who are either starting into work on 'tables' or who have not been doing well with their tables and need help. It's purpose is to give children a great start with their 'tables' - a solid foundation. It includes:

• Two Flick Sticks
• The Flick Stick Guide - as above - 24 pages packed with information
• Build Tables - activities that cover the 'understanding' side of mastery of tables

'Easier & Harder' Basic Multiplication & Division Workbook Set

Busy parents with little available time should find interest in the complimentary 'KIWIMATHS' DVD that comes with the 4-workbook pack (though it comes from the original VHS video and is only VHS in quality). You will see children aged 7, 9 and 11 at their activities and you will see how it takes very little time to bring them to a high level of success. You will see also the tried and true Doc Rainey methods that first ensure accuracy, then develop accuracy with speed and expert skills. You will see the benefits of short sharp concentrated exercise. Books in the 'easier and harder' series were virtually made, busy one, for you!
